The Magpul PMAG GL9 50-round drum magazine transforms Glock pistols into high-capacity platforms for extended shooting sessions. This black polymer drum eliminates frequent reloading interruptions during competition, training, or recreational shooting. Built with Magpul's proven polymer construction, the GL9 drum delivers reliable feeding across multiple Glock models.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard 17-round magazines, this drum configuration provides 50 rounds of 9mm capacity in a single loading. The polymer construction weighs significantly less than steel alternatives while maintaining structural integrity under repeated use. Magpul's anti-tilt follower system ensures consistent cartridge presentation to the chamber. The drum's low-profile design maintains reasonable weapon balance compared to extended stick magazines.
